Hi, does anyone know the part number for cam cover seals for a 2.5? part numbers are different on the 2.6.

[blackviper90210]

I believe this to be the part number for the 2.5...Part Number: 90511451N

Just a pointer, make sure you only buy GENUINE Vx gaskets and not cheap third party one's, or you'll be doing them again before you know it!

^^^ That might be correct (I don't know), except for the 'N' at the end.  Ironically, that is one of the online retailers' suffixes that indicate a non-genuine part.

yesi found that out to my costs
 vx ones only

[andyc]

Only the very late 2.6 & 3.2 had a different gaskets and that was in around the last year of the Omega.

Of all the sets iv'e sold, and i've done a few i think i've only ever sold two sets of late gaskets

thats whats on packet cost £26 (each side)

[blackviper90210]

Hate to piss on your fire, but I was told not use these as they're not genuine and to stick with Genuine Vx part only 

[andyc]

Elring  do make gaskets for GM but they do not make the cam coaver gasket no matter what ant one says

What is the difference? My car is a very late 2,6 with the later type cambelt rollers and later type thermostat (or was, it was replaced with the old type) but the rocker gaskets were the same as in my previous 2,6 which was one of the very first ones...

thanks guys for your replies
i still say there are 2 vauxhall part numbers for cam seals
i have a 2.5 and 2.6 cam seals are different on these engines

[albitz]

2.5 and 3.0 will be the same seals but they will be different from those on the 2.6 and 3.2 (which will be the same as each other) as the camcovers are different on the DBW engines due to coil packs on top of plugs rather than HT leads.

2.5 & 3.0 cam covers use 2 seals per cover, DBW covers use a single seal - in effect the single seal is the same as the 2 seals of the 2.5 & 3.0 but joined together.
